Mahrez has made himself available for Leicester's match on Saturday against Manchester City, Sky sources understand, but, speaking on Thursday, manager Claude Puel said the Algerian would not be involved in the Sky Live game at the Etihad.

"I think Riyad will be not available," said Puel. "I hope he can get his head right and come back with us and work hard. The best way is to come back and enjoy his football."
